[@emadtriki3489]

Hi I have keep 4xe and car in parking P and when I push the car it’s moving and I can’t start the engine any help pls

[@mookieblaylock2589]

Sell this trash out and buy normal Jeep.

[@TheJavaman181]

Real world, 150 mile ev range, backup use a 4 cylinder diesel engine, this is what jeep folk want

[@cafe88racer53]

lol 150mi ev range, just skip the hybrid part

[@briankuhn7396]

Nice! The cool factor is definitely there for a diesel electric hybrid! That’s not typically done because both are more efficient for low rpm and high torque applications... But if there is any vehicle where that makes sense, it’s a Jeep!

I want this vehicle !

[@ChristopherOvrebo]

I remember way back when GM did this for their trucks and Malibu's. Pretty sure no one cared and they didn't sell well. Once they get over 10 years old and the battery goes bad, it's basically totalled

[@skseth]

I just bought the 4xe today and it’s great! It’s not listed in the manual, does anyone know how to turn on the regenerative breaking option?

[@drivingca]

Hello, the process is typically automatic in that type of vehicle. Just release the gas pedal or touch the brakes and it kicks in automatically!

[@skseth]

@@drivingca figured it out! It’s actually a button on the dash!

[@matthewsfrawley]

@@sksethRegenerative breaking is standard on the Wrangler 4Xe. The button you are referring to is a "max regen mode." This mode will give the maximum amount of energy back to the battery! Any other questions?

How do you charge on the trail?

[@adammahmoud3570]

It’s a hybrid 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️it uses gas and electric

[@greenrush4313]

@@adammahmoud3570 no it doesnt. how dare u

[@JustinPritchard]

Nearly 90 percent of this shopper will charge exclusively at home.

[@transws6am]

Jeep has been installing charging systems are many of the major trails

[@cafe88racer53]

run the engine lol

[@slipperyslope3912]

This is the dumbest engineering I've seen in a while. They keep all the mechanical drivetrain and ADD electric motors, to the engine no less? Use 4 electric wheel motors. Delete the transmission, t-case, differentials and axles. Use the engine as a generator and transmit power to wheel motors by wire, electricity. This ables 100% power distribution to a single wheel (better than locking diffs), less drivetrain power losses, fewer components to pay for and to break.

Too bad Jeep didn't use "1,000,000 real world miles" in testing their new Uconnect5!

[@crashnebula7]

Is their UConnect still trash? I have a 2017 and I hate the setup/blutooth more than anything

Greetings to all Americans! You destroyed automotive legacy.

This video was probably the least helpful out of all. This information is forcefed to everyone, not requiring a video

[@kevinhirst911]

... I want to wait for the all Electric Jeep Wrangler Magento. This is kind of a Gimmick vehicle souped up to seem like a "Electric" SUV. 25 miles doesn't cut it.

[@conifergreen2]

I own a 2009 Wrangler. Total piece of junk that needs constant repairs. Horrible fuel economy and handling. Chrysler ruined the Jeep. I will never buy a Chrysler product again. Buyer beware.

[@transws6am]

The Ford Raptor I had was by far the biggest like of shit I ever had. That thing was nonstop back at the dealership until it was finally lemon-lawed. Besides the trans problems, the interior was utter cheap Fisher-Price junk.

[@DaDeCodeIsTruth]

since AMC, to now, Jeeps have ALWAYS been shit boxes. they only do one thing well; go off road.
